The selection of the size of a poster usually depends on what you want to use it for and the medium you are going to install it on. What standard poster size should you be using? Posters are the original informational and public notice tool, used since the beginnings of papyrus writing mediums and continue to this day to be one of the most dynamic marketing tools available. Our posters can be seen in in-store wall displays, outdoor large format displays such as bus stops, popup stands and trade shows and of course inside sporting clubs and schools. Posters are one of our most popular printed products, as their attention grabbing size and cost-effective printing options give a great return on investment for your advertising.
